Glad to hear that's a problem. A couple years ago, it took a couple of months to get 7 threads :lol:

There is a Burger King on 33, right before you get to downtown Harrisonburg. We can meet there. I will put together a detailed route / time outline tonight.

I will also be buying the meat / chicken for the menu tomorrow... so if you don't plan on eating at the back yard bbq, let me know.

If I can divert everyone's attention from Steve's family friend :rofl: I will be doing the final route planning late tomorrow night. The fun part (from Harrisonburg to Snowshoe) is already set. Those of you who will join me around DC... Do you prefer I-66 to I-81, or a rural route to Harrisonburg? The trade off is we get there quicker to hit the mountains if we go highway, but it's not as fun as taking some backroads there. My fear is we have so much mountain road ahead of us, I don't want to wear us out before we get to the fun part. Let me know. If I hear nothing, 66 to 81 it is.

I see, so the functionality is there, but the icons don't quite stand out - I think that's what you're saying. I can fix that by replacing the dark blue envelope with something more prominent that still fits the theme.

I appreciate it. The way we're trying to pay for this stuff is through the membership fees, and we're trying to do that as part of registering for events like the 7/7/7 and PNW Tour. Our forum is small enough that a few hundred bucks a year covers the hosting, and my time is... free. My reward is watching the community grow, and meeting alot of great folks. :cheers:

Oh yeah... since I'm on the forum most of the time I don't notice these things :crazy:

Exporting to Japan is far differnt than manufacturing in China. It is inevitable though. If they can keep up the quality control, nothing wrong with it I suppose.

An open source asp.net forum called YetAnotherForum :lol:

no prob... I actually just finished the mod. but then I realized... I think all new posts since your last visit get http://localhost:2188/themes/yafvision/icon_newest_reply.gif as opposed to this http://localhost:2188/themes/yafvision/icon_latest_reply.gif Were you guys asking for something different? What I'm doing in the code now is to make the topic bold if there has been a reply since last visit.

:willy: http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/default.aspx?g=posts&t=1290 I guess I better get cracking... let me see how involved this is

Is that in line with what S2K folks see with their cars?

One day a biker dies and finds himself in hell. As he is wallowing in despair, he has his first meeting with the devil... Satan: "Why so glum?" Biker: "What do you think? I'm in hell!" Satan: "Hell's not so bad. We actually have a lot of fun down here. You a drinking man?" Biker: "Sure, I love to drink." Satan: "Well, you're gonna love Mondays then. On Mondays, that's all we do is drink. Whiskey, tequila, Guinness, wine coolers, Tab, and Fresca. We drink 'til we throw up, and then we drink some more! And you don't have to worry about getting a hangover, because you're dead anyway." Biker : "Gee that sounds great!" Satan: "You a smoker?" Biker : "You better believe it" Satan: "All right! You're gonna love Tuesdays We get the finest cigars from all over the world, and smoke our lungs out. If you get cancer - no biggie, you're already dead, remember?" Biker : "Wow...that's awesome!" Satan: "I bet you like to gamble." Biker : "Why, yes, as a matter of fact I do." Satan: "Good, 'cause Wednesdays you can gamble all you want. Craps, blackjack, roulette, poker, slots, whatever. If you go bankrupt, it doesn't matter; you're dead anyhow." Biker : "Cool!" Satan: "What about Drugs?" Biker : "Are you kidding? Love drugs! You don't mean...?" Satan: "That's right! Thursday is drug day. Help yourself to a great big bowl of crack or smack. Smoke a doobie the size of a submarine. You can do all the drugs you want. You're dead, so who cares." Biker : "Wow! I never realised Hell was such a cool place!" Satan: "You gay?" Biker : "No..." Satan: "Ooooh, Fridays are gonna be tough..."

These losses are WAY more than 15% if the advertised engine power numbers are right. For reference, my LS1 was advertised at 345hp from the factory, and produced 298 at the wheels, which works out to 14% loss - inline with everybody's estimate of 15% loss through the drivetrain.

Major pucker factor

Chinese for Atom: ?? :ack: China has been pushing hard into the auto industry, so I guess it'll only be a matter of time before more fringe / exotic chinese cars start showing up. One thing is for sure... Rotus won't be one of them

my car doesn't follow this part of the seven philosophy

:lol: Poor Steve

Ditto for my poor vette... used to be ALWAYS garaged. she's been sitting outside for a few months. Hope to have her back in by October at least

looks like the forecast has improved a little... now chance of rain is 20% on saturday and 10% on sunday and snowshoe is 15 degrees cooler... high of 62 :thumbs:

Just to keep the discussion in one place... see this thread. Unfortunately with this package I can't merge threads yet.... http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/Default.aspx?g=posts&t=1228

It's a nice car, but I think everyone here is spending all their cash on their sevens.

:cokespew:

Great idea. I'll add that late tonight. Thanks
